When I reviewed Jordan Rakei‘s album Wallflower last October, one of the aspects I praised the most was the versatility of Rakei’s musical talent. That still holds true, and it turns out musical ability isn’t the only talent Rakei has in his repertoire. Rakei just released a music video for Wallflower‘s opening track “Eye To Eye,” and he’s a pretty great actor, as well. The video begins with Rakei crawling out of the sea, and he looks a little worse for wear.

I’ve included Au/Ra in my weekly Take 5 column twice now. The acoustic version of her song “Outsiders” immediately captured my attention at the start of the year with smart writing based off of a famous Pink Floyd line. Her latest single, “Panic Room,” has not left my head since I heard it.

Here at Substream, we’ve had the pleasure of premiering songs, music videos and albums from artists big and small. There’s nothing quite like sharing something from an artist most people aren’t familiar with, especially when that artist does something as unique as combining themes from science fiction and mystery with a sound based on indie-rock and synth-pop. It’s quite the combination, and it’s exactly what you’ll get from New York-based duo Neverthere.

“I guess this is our first tour of the year,” says Lou Miceli Jr., vocalist for New Jersey group Palisades on the afternoon of February 12. Miceli is currently seated in one of three green rooms located behind the main stage at The Intersection. It may sound like something out of a movie, a rock star in their dressing room, but in reality, he’s just killing time before doors open for the band’s first night on tour with Starset.

There is no experience quite like seeing Above & Beyond in concert. There is a community that exists in EDM like no other, but the ties that bind fans of that genre often run far deeper than surface level interest in a particular style of music. Fans of Above & Beyond, for example, are connected through something so much bigger than the music itself.

Sophomore albums, especially after following successful debuts, can be a little bit tricky to write. There are expectations from fans and critics, but you also have your own desires on what you, as an artist, want to do to continue pushing yourself forward. You can either choose to stick with what you have created or re-define who you are as a band to move forward. There is nothing inherently wrong with either choice but Minneapolis trio Household chose the former.

I grew up watching Boy Meets World reruns and falling in love with the Matthews family and the characters that found their way into the kitchen before graduating to dorm rooms and coffee shops. If we’re around the same age, it is more of a fact than it is an assumption that the first great romance you witnessed involved none other than Corey Matthews and Topanga Lawrence. We watched their friendship as it grew into the kind of relationship that we all strive for.

Selecting a term

Phrases (e.g. "cloud computing") — use quotes to keep the terms together

Twitter handles (e.g. @username) — returns those who have mentioned or replied to
given user

Names (e.g. "David Pogue")

Hashtags (e.g. #sxsw, #london2012)

Bio details (e.g. vegan, Olympics, father)

Advanced terms

Muck Rack's Advanced Search allows for many boolean operators.

AND

Find results that mention multiple specified terms, use AND or
+. For example, ensure each result contains both Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg by
searching Musk AND Zuckerberg or Musk + Zuckerberg.

OR

Use the operators OR or , to broaden your search when you'd like either of
multiple terms to appear in results. (This is the default behavior of our search when no operators
are used). For example, results will contain either cake or cookie by searching cake OR cookie or cake,cookie

NOT

Use NOT or - to subtract results from your search. For
example, searching Disney will yield results about the Walt Disney Company as well as Walt Disney
World Resort. To exclude mentions of Disney World, search for Disney -World or Disney
NOT World.

Phrases

When using one of these operators with a phrase, enclose it in quotation marks. For example, you can
find results about smartphones excluding Apple's iPhone 4S by searching smartphone -"iPhone
4s".

Exact case matching or punctuation

If you're searching for a brand name or keyword that relies on specific punctuation marks or capitalization, you can
find results that match your exact query by adding matchcase: before the keyword you're searching for, like matchcase:E*TRADE .

Combining operators

Use parentheses to separate multiple
boolean phrases. For example, to find journalists talking about having fun in Disney World or
Disneyland, search for ("disney world" OR disneyland) AND fun.

Asterisk

An asterisk can be used to search for any variation of a root word truncated by the asterisk. For example, searching for admin* will return results for administrator, administration, administer, administered, etc.

Near

A near operator is an AND operator where you can control the distance between the words. You can vary the distance the near operation uses by adding a forward slash and number (between 0-99) such as strawberries NEAR/10 "whipped cream", which means the strawberries must exist within 10 words of "whipped cream".
